Good grief! Private! Do you know who owns it? R-
It belongs to HM Sultan Qaboos bin Said al Said and is
one of his personal fleet of pleasure craft of the Oman Royal Yacht Squadron.
The name of the yacht is The Fulk al Salamah, and is Secondary Royal Yacht & support vessel.

HNoMY Norge is rather attractive. The other one looks like one of the exclusive cruise ships that sail from Southampton with more crew members than passengers.
